This book is the story of a ranch that covered the southern half of Lubbock County from 1884 to 1901.  If the ranch had not gone bankrupted, Lubbock may have become a different city.  Many of the first settlers of Lubbock worked on the ranch and then became an important part of the development of the city and county.
